First time shooting show in club

double_b

First time I shot a club show. A buddy of mine's bluegrass band. Venue was a pretty cool place. A bar, a stage, artwork and good stage lighting. Thought I'd share. Shot RAW but then just converted to JPEG as I thought they looked OK as is.

D300 with 35 1.8 and 85 1.8 lenses.

not bad..your compositions are pretty decent but there is heck of lot of noise and softness in many shots.

Feels like a club. Feels like a bluegrass band. I like your captures!

Thanks for sharing.

f2 and 1600 and a slowish SS will do that! .

I will probably clean some up, but he mainly wanted them for their FB page. I was actually suprised they turned out as they did. I really expected a very dark blurr.

Thanks

Some are bit noisy, but I don't really care about them.
I think you did very well! Overall very nice compositions I think the crop on the 3rd is a bit tight on the right side though and I'm missing a photo where I can see eyes
